Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for Golf Putting Pad Import
What is the typical Stimp meter speed of your standard putting pad?
Our standard putting greens are engineered to mimic medium-fast greens, typically in the 10-11 range on the Stimp meter. However, we can adjust yarn type, density, and pile height to achieve slower or faster speeds (e.g., 8-9 for beginners or 12+ for professional simulation) as part of our ODM service.
Can you produce putting pads with a non-standard size or shape?
Yes, custom sizing and shaping are core aspects of our OEM/ODM design capability. We can produce circular pads, wide-body practice greens, or modular tiles that connect. The only limitations are the width of our primary production machinery, which we can discuss during your project consultation.
What certifications do your products hold for export to the USA and EU?
Our manufacturing facility is ISO 9001:2015 certified. Our synthetic turf materials are routinely tested by third-party labs like SGS for compliance with CE, ROHS, and ASTM standards. We provide test reports upon request. For specific regulations, please inform us of your market, and we will ensure the product meets the necessary guidelines.
What is your process for ensuring quality control before shipment?
We implement a three-stage QC process: 1) Raw material inspection, 2) In-line production checks for stitching, printing, and flatness, and 3) A final random inspection where a percentage of units from each batch are unboxed and checked for function, appearance, and packaging. We can accommodate third-party inspections before shipment.
Do you offer drop-shipping or mixed container services?
While our core strength is manufacturing and export (FOB/CIF), we can discuss logistical support, including consolidating your order of putting mats with other products (e.g., artificial grass for landscaping). This is handled on a case-by-case basis to optimize cost and efficiency for your supply chain.
